Please I’ve been following this trend a while now. I’ve gotten admission from Grand valley state Uni for masters and I’ve booked for date and yet to pay sevis but my bro in the US is paying for me. I just want to know if it’s possible for him to make the payment and send me the receipt and I can print it here

kidUrbane:


Hello,
Yes, your bro in the US can help you make the payment. He’ll have to generate a coupon on your behalf from the SEVP website (www.fmjfee.com)You can also generate the coupon yourself and send it to him via email. The coupon is what he needs to make payment at the Western Union outlet. Good luck.

That is misrepresentation I will urge u not to go with that
The best thing you can do now is to send the present statement of account to the school and request for another I-20 to carry the name of your present sponsor

Personally I dont know details on even 1% of schools in the USA Because they are so many so you have to do proper research to determine if it right for you... st cloud state wiki states its a public university which tells me it not a red flag but at least a standard school. But that all i can tell you

Don't say that sir...I already applied in 2017 and I paid all my fees only to be denied a Visa... Now am reapplying... I have never begged for this sort of help my whole life... Circumstances changed especially with my sponsorer who got frustrated by the continuous applications I continue to make and said he had better spent money elsewhere..I have spent a lot of money on application fees and evaluation of transcript...i have sent my GRE scores countless times but I know if I get the visa he will pay for all my travelling and expenses God willing...Please help me this one time...I will be forever grateful..I had to summon a lot of courage to come here...trust me it wasn't easy
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by KingStefan(m): 9:14am On Apr 01, 2019
The reasons for denial are obvious. Apart from the school, you failed on two attempts to explain why you chose this school. The VO gave you chances twice which was why he smiled at some point cos you didn't get it. Research the unique points of the school and your course better and refire.

You have to provide a strong reason for why you chose that school. Just a heads up, this your school (Maharishi University) don dey cast small small as a visa mill. Nigerians don dey cast their low admission requirement and their financial payment plans. I guess the VOs might also have heard about it.

So, you should have a very strong reason for choosing this school and it should be very strong unique features of the school - features you can't find anywhere. Every school does Software Development (even community colleges and bootcamps), so it is not a strong reason to choose the school (even ahead of Georgia Southern and New Haven)

Also, don't mention any entry JAVA exam because I noticed you did not write the GRE. If you mention any entry exam, the VO might ask for a GRE score and na there your matter go cast.

So, in summary, research your school very well and have very solid reasons why you want to attend the school. Also, have it in mind that your school is gradually entering the red-flag list with the likes of CALMUS and Virginia International University.

1. The fact that nobody offered to do a mock interview with you doesn't mean u should indirectly blame this denial on this group's members. Nobody owes nobody anything.

2. when I heard maharishi University, I had to go back n double-check. I thought u were applying to a school in India. I am not a VO, but I can tell this school has a serious K-leg.

3. You graduated in 2005, which means you r probably 38 years now. It appears desperate especially coupled with your choice of school.

4. D interview just didn't go well. U couldn't say y u chose d school n it appears that u n the VO never had a meaningful discussion.

I think u first need to change d school.

For chemistry, it's late but NOT too late. It's late if you're considering financial assistance (but not impossible)and it's not too late because some schools will still need to fill up their classrooms. From the little I know, oyinbo no too dey enrol for chemistry.

So, I'd advise you to use Google at this juncture to know which school's application is open. Also, I'll like to know if you've done the GRE and the TOEFL.

Best!!
